    Today: 100.2kg - Chest 117 - Waist 110 - Hips 112.

    Today: 99.4kg - Chest 116 - Waist 109 - Hips 111.

    Well I'm happy with that. Under the ton for a first time in... well a long fucking time.

    Losing another 800g over a week is still pushing hard. 4kg over 3 weeks probably isn't anywhere near what you'd call drastic, I suppose, and nearly half that happened during Week 1 where you lose the "water weight".

    If I could keep up with half a kilo a week from here, I'll be just over 95 by 1st September. And probably telling the doctor to shove his meds.

    Today: 98.7kg - Chest 115 - Waist 108 - Hips 111

    Considering I had a solid meal at the pub last night as well as a Scotch & dry, that's a fairly big win.

    Going half a kilo/week from here would get me to 94.5kg by 1st September.

    At that point, maybe the doc can go get stuffed 😉

          I just have em at lunch instead and make sure I have copious amounts of black coffee in the lead up. During the week I generally eat cos I need to, the weekend is generally full mortal combat with as much bacon, egg and sausage as I can manage.

          *real sausage, not bloke sausage #nohomo

            5km in 32:30

            Fucking cold here: -3.6C is hardly ideal running but I suppose it's better than 20C+

              That is gaining some serious traction. What benefits do you reckon you're getting?

              Not sure if I could do that. I'd go nuts without breakfast.

                  That's always good! I think Rogan is big on that now. One of his guests was an advocate of it.

                  The most important thing is that it works for you right.

                  It obviously does and means you can insert lots of sausage on the weekend.

                      good going NTA, aim for low 90s. Your progress is excellent.
                      BTW, I think you can lose about 1kg a week with more discipline on the food, and longer workouts.

                        @wairau you're probably right. Had a bit of a pizza blowout on the weekend so recovering from that will need some keen focus.

                        This week is where the struggle starts I think, in terms of the mental effort required to sustain it. The insomnia from the cholesterol drugs isn't ideal on this regard.

                        That said, I had a fairly good night's sleep, which helps.

                        Pilates tonight. My general abdominal area is feeling solid from the whole exercise regime, but I'm looking forward to accelerating the core doing this for a month or two, then looking for something harder as the body fat percentage drops below 20.

                        Also doing pelvic floor exercises to ensure everything is working there, in terms of erectile issues and bladder health.

                        And people are starting to notice the weight loss at work. Wife hasn't said anything

                            do you find your vagina getting tighter?

                            @mariner4life I think it just makes the tuck a bit easier to hold...

                              @wairau you're probably right. Had a bit of a pizza blowout on the weekend so recovering from that will need some keen focus.

                              This week is where the struggle starts I think, in terms of the mental effort required to sustain it. The insomnia from the cholesterol drugs isn't ideal on this regard.

                              That said, I had a fairly good night's sleep, which helps.

                              Pilates tonight. My general abdominal area is feeling solid from the whole exercise regime, but I'm looking forward to accelerating the core doing this for a month or two, then looking for something harder as the body fat percentage drops below 20.

                              Also doing pelvic floor exercises to ensure everything is working there, in terms of erectile issues and bladder health.

                              And people are starting to notice the weight loss at work. Wife hasn't said anything

                                Not as tight as your bike pants, homo.

                                  Pilates last night and I struggled. Good signs in one regard, but maybe I need to repeat some of the exercises later in the week.

                                  5km run this morning in 30:17 and fuck I flogged the last km out trying to get under 30.

                                    Points for consistency bro!! You will see results with the effort you are putting in.

                                      Tighter during the week but all the sausage on the weekend reverses it all.

                                        Woke up at 4am and despite getting back to sleep for another hour, was too tired for the run this morning.

                                        Last night I did some body weight and reckon I'm a bit fatigued overall - could only get out three sets of chinup + pushup + plank.

                                        Maybe I'll finish work early today and do some 400s in the afternoon to change it up a bit.

                                          Listen to your body and be prepared to take a rest day. Better in the long run.
